Brighton; Sunday, 02 March, 2014

Any hope for a repeat of the nice weather was dashed the second I drew back the curtains and saw the wall of grey sky hanging over the city.

Breakfast completed and checked out I headed back down to the seafront, winding my way through the North Laine and The Lanes and then heading back in land to the city museum located in the stable block of the Royal Pavilion.

After the museum I headed across Pavilion gardens to have a look round the Royal Pavilion itself, and from there headed down to the Sealife centre on the sea front.

A late lunch by the sea front and then a wander down the pier, cut short by what felt like spots of rain.

Given how overcast the sky was I thought it was probably about time to make a move for home and I was just a couple of yards from the canopy of Brighton Station with my luggage when the skies started to open.

It being a Sunday it was of course the statutory Rail Replacement bus service back to Three Bridges, which at least lasted for the same length of time as the downpour so that by the time I had to get off the bus to catch the train for the final leg home it was down to just a fine misty drizzle.
